ROBERTSON

AREA FORECAST DISCUSSION
NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE MOUNT HOLLY NJ
1035 AM EDT WED APR 7 2010

.SYNOPSIS...
BERMUDA HIGH PRESSURE SOUTH OF THE REGION WILL CONTINUE ITS
INFLUENCE THROUGH THURSDAY. A SLOW MOVING COLD FRONT IS EXPECTED
TO CROSS THE REGION LATER ON THURSDAY WITH HIGH PRESSURE MOVING IN
BEHIND IT FOR FRIDAY THROUGH THE WEEKEND.

&&

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...
WITH THE BERMUDA HIGH PRESSURE STILL FIRMLY ENTRENCHED OVER THE
EASTERN SEABOARD WE WILL SEE ANOTHER SUMMER LIKE DAY ACROSS OUR
CWA ON WEDNESDAY. MODEL 1000 TO 850H THICKNESSES DO SHOW A
DECREASE DURING THE DAY ON WEDNESDAY OF ABOUT 10DM FROM TUESDAY,
BUT WITH THE STAUNCH LLJ PERSISTING AND AN IDENTICAL AIR MASS IN
PLACE WE WILL ONCE MORE SEE DAYTIME HIGHS CLIMB INTO THE MID TO
UPPER 80S IN MOST LOCALES WITH EVEN A FEW 90F READINGS ALONG THE
COASTAL PLAIN.

THE ECMWF AND CANADIAN ARE SHOWING A VERY WEAK SURFACE TROUGH
AXIS PUSH THROUGH, MAINLY CAUSED BY THE INTENSE HEATING, WHICH
WOULD EXPLAIN THE DECREASING THICKNESSES. STILL THERE WILL BE VERY
LITTLE CLOUD COVER AND A VERY DRY GROUND AIDING IN CLIMBING
AFTERNOON TEMPERATURES. MODEL FORECAST SOUNDINGS HAVE MOST OF THE
REGION GOING SUPERADIABATIC FOR A TIME THIS AFTERNOON WITH AMPLE
MIXING TAKING PLACE AND LOTS OF DRY AIR TO PULL DOWN. DUE TO THE
ABOVE, A RED FLAG WARNING HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR ALL OUR NEW JERSEY
AND PENNSYLVANIA COUNTIES FOR WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON. SEE THE FIRE
WEATHER SECTION FOR MORE DETAILS.

&&

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY/...
BERMUDA HIGH STILL HOLDING TIGHT ONTO THE REGION FOR THE FIRST
HALF OF THURSDAY, BUT THEN WE SLOWLY SEE A CHANGE OCCURRING FROM
WEST TO EAST. A SLOW-MOVING COLD FRONT WILL BE APPROACHING FROM
THE WEST DURING THURSDAY...BUT IT SEEMS TO BE A BIT SLOWER THAN
PREVIOUS RUNS. THE EURO AND SREF WERE IN CLOSE AGREEMENT WITH THE
TIMING OF THE FROPA ON THURSDAY AND PER HPCS MDL DISCO, THESE MDLS
WERE USED FOR THE SHORT TERM. THERE IS A DECENT SHOT OF SEVERE
CONVECTION ON THURSDAY/THURSDAY EVENING AS DAYTIME HIGHS WILL ONCE
AGAIN BE WELL ABOVE NORMAL, ALTHOUGH NOT AS WARM AS ON WEDNESDAY.
INCREASING SHEAR AND CAPE INDICES INDICATE THE POSSIBILITY OF
DAMAGING WINDS AND HAIL ON THURSDAY, HOWEVER, WE NEED TO HAVE OUR
DEWPOINT TEMPERATURES REBOUND NICELY IN THE MID TO UPPER 50S ON
THURSDAY FOR SAID CONVECTION TO COME TO FRUITION. WE CONTINUE THE
CURRENT WORDING IN OUR HWO FOR THE INCREASED THREAT OF SEVERE
CONVECTIVE WEATHER ON THURSDAY.

ONCE THE FRONT MOVES THROUGH EARLY ON FRIDAY MORNING WE SEE
ANOTHER DECENT SHOT OF HEAVY PRECIPITATION ASSOCIATED WITH THE
ADVANCEMENT OF THE MID-LEVEL CLOSED LOW. WINDS SWING AROUND TO THE
WEST NORTHWEST AND A DRYING TREND WILL CONTINUE THROUGHOUT THE DAY
ON FRIDAY. TEMPERATURES WILL ALSO TAKE A HIT ON FRIDAY WITH THE
COOLER WESTERLY FLOW... DAYTIME HIGHS SHOULD END UP AROUND NORMAL
WITH CLEARING SKIES.

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH TUESDAY/...
THIS EXTENDD PD IS ONE OF THE QUIETEST IN MY RECENT MEMORY. HIGH
PRESSURE BUILD IN BEHIND THE DEPARTING CDFNT AND IS OVER THE
REGION INTO THE MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK. DRY WX WITH TEMPS STARTING
OUT AROUND NORMAL THEN WARMING TO ABOVE SEASONAL TEMPS CAN BE
EXPECTED. A WK CDFNT IS FCST TO CROSS N OF THE REGION SUNDAY
AFTN/EVENING AND SHOULD BRING NOTHING MORE THAN AN INCREASE IN
CLOUDS. THE PRECIP SHOULD STAY WELL TO THE N. THE RIDGE
REESTABLISHES ITSELF LATER MONDAY INTO WEDNESDAY. THE GFS,
INEXPLICABLY TRIES TO DEVELOP SOME LIGHT PRECIP CLOSE TO THE
CENTER OF THE HIGH ON MONDAY/NIGHT TUESDAY, BUT THIS ASPECT IS
BEING IGNORED ATTM. THE LATEST ECMWF (06/12Z) SUPPORTS A DRY FCST
THROUGH THE PD, AND DON'T SEE ANY CONVINCING REASON TO DEVIATE.

&&

.AVIATION /15Z WEDNESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY/...
THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION IS FOR KPHL, KPNE, KTTN, KABE, KRDG,
KILG, KMIV, KACY AND SURROUNDING AREAS.

VERY DRY AIR MASS IN PLACE OVER THE TAF SITES, SO PRETTY MUCH
CIRRUS OR NOTHING AT ALL THROUGH THE DAY. WINDS WILL START MIXING
LATE THIS MORNING, BUT THE TAF SITES ARE FORECAST TO BE BETWEEN
TWO LOW LEVEL JET CORES (ONE NOW AND ANOTHER TONIGHT), SO PEAK
GUSTS SHOULD REACH 20 TO 25 KTS. THE GRADIENT WIND IS EXPECTED TO
BE SOUTHWEST AND WITH ABOUT 25 KNOTS OF WIND BETWEEN THE SURFACE
AND 850MB, BOTH SHOULD PREVENT THE SEA BREEZE FROM MAKING IT TO
MOST OF THE TAF SITES. OUR HIGH RESOLUTION MODEL BRINGS THE SEA
BREEZE INTO KACY AT ABOUT 23Z. WINDS ARE FORECAST TO DECOUPLE
TONIGHT IN SPITE OF THE NEXT LOW LEVEL JET AND NO GUSTS WILL BE
CARRIED PAST 23Z. NO VSBY RESTRICTIONS ARE EXPECTED THROUGH THE
EVENING AND WITH THAT LOW LEVEL JET TONIGHT, AM INCLINED TO THINK
THIS WOULD BE TRUE THROUGH THE NIGHT.

OUTLOOK...
A COLD FRONT FROM THE WEST IS FORECAST TO ARRIVE ON THURSDAY NIGHT.
AS A RESULT, WE MAY SEE SOME SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FROM LATE
THURSDAY INTO EARLY FRIDAY. HIGH PRESSURE AND DRY WEATHER SHOULD
FOLLOW FOR LATE FRIDAY AND FOR THE WEEKEND.

&&

.MARINE...
SEAS RESPONDED IN THE SOUTHERN WATERS TO A LLJ THAT PASSED ACROSS
OUR CWA EARLY THIS MORNING. THERE IS A LULL IN THE WINDS THIS
AFTERNOON BEFORE THEY RISE AGAIN. UNFORTUNATELY THIS LEAVES US
BOUNCING AROUND THE SCA CRITERIA OVER THE NEXT 24 TO 36 HOURS
BEFORE A GREATER CHANCE COMES ALONG PRECEDING THE COLD FRONT.

BERMUDA HIGH PRESSURE IS FORECAST TO INFLUENCE OUR REGION INTO
THURSDAY. THE WIND WILL BE MAINLY FROM THE SOUTHWEST THROUGH
WEDNESDAY NIGHT, THEN IT SHOULD BECOME MORE SOUTHERLY FOR
THURSDAY. WHILE THE WIND MAY BECOME GUSTY OVER LAND DURING THE
DAYLIGHT HOURS, THERE SHOULD BE FEW IF ANY GUSTS OVER THE WATER,
BEING THAT THE WATER TEMPERATURE REMAINS QUITE COOL (AROUND 50
DEGREES OR SO).

A COLD FRONT FROM THE WEST IS EXPECTED TO ARRIVE ON THURSDAY
NIGHT. AS IT APPROACHES, WE MAY BEGIN TO EXPERIENCE ISOLATED GUSTS
TO 25 KNOTS OVER THE WATER FROM LATE THURSDAY INTO THURSDAY NIGHT.
WITH THE SOUTHERLY FLOW, WAVES ON THE OCEAN MAY BUILD TO 5 OR 6
FEET DURING THAT TIME FRAME AND A SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY MAY BE
NEEDED.

THE FRONT SHOULD PASS FARTHER OFF THE COAST ON FRIDAY. WE SEEM TO
HAVE A BETTER CHANCE OF EXPERIENCING GUSTS IN THE 25 KNOTS RANGE
ON FRIDAY NIGHT, AS COOL AIR BEGINS TO WORK ITS WAY OVER THE
WATER.

HIGH PRESSURE IS ANTICIPATED TO FOLLOW FOR THE WEEKEND, WITH WIND
GUSTS AND OCEAN WAVE HEIGHTS FALLING BELOW SMALL CRAFT ADVISORY
CRITERIA.

&&

.FIRE WEATHER...
FOR TODAY, WINDS ARE FORECAST TO BECOME GUSTY BY AFTERNOON AS THE
SOUTHWEST OR WEST-SOUTHWEST FLOW RESPONDS TO THE INCREASED
GRADIENT. ENHANCED BOUNDARY LAYER MIXING WILL HELP TO AIDE THE
DRYING OF OUR SURFACE LAYER AS DEWPOINTS AND RHS DECREASE. WIND
GUSTS SHOULD BE AT OR OVER 20 MILES AN HOUR FOR MOST SPOTS DURING
THE AFTERNOON HOURS. FUELS WILL CONTINUE TO BE VERY DRY AND THERE
IS NO PRECIPITATION EXPECTED ON WEDNESDAY TO INCREASE THE FUELS,
THEREFORE WE HAVE ISSUED A RED FLAG WARNING FOR ALL OUR
PENNSYLVANIA AND NEW JERSEY COUNTIES, EXCEPT THE IMMEDIATE COASTAL
REGIONS, FROM 15Z TO 23Z WEDNESDAY.

WE WILL CONTINUE TO MENTION OUR DELMARVA COUNTIES IN OUR HWO/SPS
PRODUCTS. RELATIVE HUMIDITIES DID NOT FALL INTO OUR RFW CRITERIA
IN THESE LOCATIONS.

&&

.CLIMATE...
SOME RECORD HIGHS MAY FALL OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS,
ESPECIALLY SOME OF THE "CHEAPER" LOWER ONES. THE 90F ON APRIL 7TH
IS THE EARLIEST 90 FOR PHL. ONE OF THESE AFTERNOONS, THE OFF THE
DELAWARE RIVER WIND MIGHT KEEP PHL INTL LOWER THAN SURROUNDING
SITES.

RECORD HIGHS FOR THE NEXT THREE DAYS...
